Matching Audio Levels with Offset

When linking two or more transmitters to a receiver, there may be a difference in volume levels between micro­

ume differences between transmitters. If using a single transmitter, set Offset to 0 dB.
1. Turn on the first transmitter and perform a sound check to test the audio level. Turn off the transmitter when fin­
ished.
2. Turn on the second transmitter and perform a sound check to test the audio level. Repeat for any additional
transmitters.
3. If there is an audible difference in the sound level between the transmitters, navigate to the Offset menu
( > ) in the transmitter to increase or decrease the Offset in realtime to match the audio levels.
